Logitech Mouse Driver

Have you tried to toggle the "hardware mouse " option to see if there is any difference.

AFAIK hardware/software mouse only affects the painting of the cursor on the game screen, not the mouse itself.

I have also a logitec mouse. And after some tests, it appears that mouse driver isn't correctly used in fullscreen mode. For example, pressing the 2 buttons to get a mousewheel behavior. But I got the correct behavior if I play in a window mode. And I have set the resolution of the window mode to fit exactly the display used. So I have a window that take the fullscreen.

The default button is universal scroll for the middle.I changed it to middle button and it tilted fine.

Which default button are you mentioning here? the Games or the Logitech driver? You changed the middle button to what from what? I will take a look at my middle button setup when I get home

On the logitech control panel or mouse properties it should have number 6 as universal scroll.Change it to middle mouse in the buttons/modify section.

If you just have a standard logitech wheelmouse, there's really no need for a special driver (which could be the problem). I have one myself and just us it with the default wheel mouse driver, and it works just fine in-game. A wheel (when pressed in) acts as a middle button by default anyway.

well, not only do I have the mouse, but a logitech keyboard as well. During install of the setpoint software, it uninstalls any preexisting mouse driver and installs one itself. I think the issue is that the middle mouse button cannot support scroll and the middle mouse button at the same time with the setpoint mouse driver installed. But, that is just a guess

Ok, using the media button as middle works fine, found another issue but will have to remove and reinstall the game to verifie it is not a corrupted install.

Well, that worked for about 2 days, then mouse driver would drop mousepointer completely, in the game as well as in windows after game was shut down.
Went up to logitechs website and found out how to extract the mouseware software, this allows you to update the driver from the setpoint version to the actual mouseware version.
Two things happened when I did this, first the mouse works the way my old microsoft mouse did, middle button, zooms, tilts and rotates game. Second, and honestly I didn't think it was a mouse control issue but here it is.
I have started and played 10 games ranging from med to huge and from 2 to 8 opponents, each time I would send out my ships to find planets they ALL were rated 0, every one within my travel range were this, after the ninth game I did get a couple of 4's and 5's, even one 11. After updating the mouse driver to the mouseware version, the first game I started had an 18 in the next galaxy. Settings in the game start window were set to abundant and tight clusters for habital planets.

Driver version for mouse is now 9.79.0.0

Again, I have no clue why it would change after installing only the mouse driver but it did.

To extract the mouseware drivers use Winzip to open the exe file and choose a directory to extract to, something like c:\temp\extracted mouseware. Then right click on my computer, select manage, then hardware. Note: when I first looked at the drivers installed there were 2 of them, on HID by microsoft, then the MX310 logitech driver, Remove the HID compliant mouse drivers, right click on the MX310 listed and select properties, then update driver. Walk the wizard through until you get to the listing of drivers, select I have a disk, point the program to the expanded mousware directory and select the 2kclean driver and let it install.
Mouse speed improved at least 30% in game, including side scrolling and i have not had any more issues with mouse configuration or losing the mouse pointer.

I'm hitting the same problem of losing the mouse cursor (and I know a couple other people have as well)... I'll try the updated version of the mouse drivers to fix it...

SInce I have done the reinstall of the mouse driver alone, have not lost mouse cursor.
